BREAKING: Another 5 Five students feared dead at Kumasi Academy SHS Today

Parents withdraw wards from school after “mysterious” deaths

Parents and guardians have already begun moving their children home temporarily after the mysterious deaths of three students of the Kumasi Academy Senior High school in Asokore Mampong in the Ashanti region.

Over 200 worried parents stormed the Kumasi Academy Senior High School
Friday night after their wards called them about a food poisoning
incident at the school.

Students of the school reportedly demonstrated at the school demanding
answers to the alleged death of three of the colleagues within the last
ten days.

The students, according to sources, died at home after falling sick at
school. They were said to have complained of a similar situation – food
poisoning.

The agitation was, however, triggered after another student complained of a massive stomach ache on Friday.

Ten other students of the school are reportedly receiving treatment at
the Garden City and Manhyia hospital for alleged food poisoning.
The irate students vandalized their school buses and other school
properties in the process and attempted to attack the assistant head
teacher of the school.

It took a combined team of Police personnel from the Asokore Mampong division and Manhyia to restore calm.

The parents who were called in by their wards were not allowed to enter
the premises by the school authorities as a result of the chaos that was
taking place there.

The management of the school is yet to officially comment on the incident.
Meanwhile, the Police have told Starr News investigations have begun into the incident.
